Crying may be a part of this. Exposure to trauma may also bring about emotions that would normally be suppressed in a psychopath.
There is evidence to suggest that psychopaths can identify behavioral traits typical of psychopathy. But acknowledgment isn't tantamount to full-fledged self-awareness. Recognizing a behavioral propensity for manipulation, for instance, doesn't equate to an internalized understanding of oneself as a 'psychopath'.
